  1. To begin, click the box on the homepage labeled - 'Edit videos with AI'

2. On the next page, upload your video and click 'Upload' to move on to the next step.

3. Pictory's unique AI will work to transcribe the audio from the video. This may take a few moments but you can click on the 'Home' button to work on other things and the transcription will continue in the background.

4. When your video has been transcribed, you will be presented with the transcription on the left and the preview of your video on the right.

5. From here, you can edit the transcript directly on the left and the changes will be reflected in the video as well. However, please note that only deleting words or sentences from the transcription will change the video itself.

6. The preview feature on the right can help see how the changes you make the the transcript reflect onto your video with voice.

7. The many ways to adjust your video transcription, including the length of each sentence, are explained in our Merging, Splitting, and Deleting Sentences page.

8. When you are done reviewing the transcription of your video, you can then proceed to the storyboard where you will add the b-rolls. Click 'Customize video' to proceed.

9. On the storyboard, each of the sentences that you selected in the previous section has now been turned into individual scenes. Each of the scenes will show the video originally assigned to it.

10. If you would like to change this visual, select the scene in which you want to change the visual and navigate to the "Visuals" tab in the left panel. Search our library for the new visual you would like to replace it with.

11. Click on the new image or video and you will see your new selection appear on the right side; it is now the new visual in your scene.

You can also replace any scenes with your own uploaded images/videos, textures, and solid colors. Check out the Adding Texture and Solid Color Background page for more information.
